-Subject: [PATCH] perf: Use python-config --includes rather than --cflags
-
-Builds started failing in Fedora on Python 3.7 with:
-
-    `.gnu.debuglto_.debug_macro' referenced in section
-    `.gnu.debuglto_.debug_macro' of
-    util/scripting-engines/trace-event-python.o: defined in discarded
-    section
-
-In Fedora, Python 3.7 added -flto to the list of --cflags and since it
-was only applied to the Python perf engine, linking failed. It's not the
-first time the addition of flags has broken builds: c6707fdef7e2 ("perf
-tools: Fix up build in hardnened environments") fixed a similar problem.
